A historic coastal home built by a captain who served on HMS Victory during the Battle of Trafalgar has gone on the market - for nearly £5m.
The unique manor home Trafalgar Barton is described as an 'exquisite mini estate' characterised by its historical significance and peaceful setting in Branscombe.
The main Grade II listed house is on the market for £3.75m and features seven bedrooms, five reception rooms, five bathrooms and is spread over a stunning 19.75 acres.
It offers buyers a mix of historical charm and modern contemporary living.
There is also a luxury cottage attached on the estate being sold separately for £1.1m - bringing the total price to £4.85m.
Estate agents have described it as offering a "blend of history, luxury, and modern income potential".
It was built by Captain Yule, who served on the HMS Victory during the Battle of Trafalgar, with the home described as "a piece of British naval history."
The estate is also situated near a top-rated beach, with sea views, yet within a picturesque village known for its community spirit and two excellent pubs.
Knight Frank, which is marketing the property, said: "The house boasts a rich history, having been built by Captain Yule, who served as a lieutenant on HMS Victory during the Battle of Trafalgar.
"The current owners have meticulously renovated the house, transforming it into a well-appointed family home."
There is also a three-bedroom Coach House that has been extensively remodelled and refurbished, along with a Dolls House that has superb far reaching views across the valley, also fully refurbished.
Both offer high-quality holiday let accommodation and there is also planning permission to convert the old dairy into a third holiday let.
Knight Frank added: "The picturesque village of Branscombe boasts a thriving community year-round, with amenities including a church, village hall, nursery school, primary school, post office, and two pubs. Much of the land surrounding the village is owned by the National Trust.
"Branscombe Beach is renowned as one of the most beautiful beaches on the Jurassic Coast, and can be accessed on foot via the National Trust path in about 10 to 15 minutes from Trafalgar Barton."
The luxury cottage on the site, known as Barnells, boasts four bedrooms, two reception rooms, two bathrooms.
It is described as the "epitome of gracious living where every detail has been carefully curated to offer a blend of sophistication and comfort.
Knight Frank added: "This home boasts an impressive principal suite, exquisite reception spaces, and a wealth of amenities for a truly refined lifestyle."
